2013 Map of Honey Island

About this map

Honey Island serves as the focal point of this coastal plain landscape, characterized by distinct geological formations and low-lying wetlands in Brunswick County. The area is defined by a series of elevated features such as Rattlesnake Ridge, Riegel Ridge, and the Island in the Forks, which stand in contrast to the expansive Big Savanna and Crane Savanna. These savannas and ridges suggest a unique ecological environment where human infrastructure, like the Riegel Lookout Tower, has historically been used to monitor the surrounding timberlands and marshes.
